  • SteamBattery

    SteamBattery stores electrical energy - such as excess renewables or off-peak power - and releases it as steam when needed. It stabilises fluctuating thermal loads, reduces reliance on fossil fuel boilers, and supports system electrification. This flexible, modular solution helps sites cut emissions and advance their net-zero transition without overhauling existing steam networks.

  • Industrial Heat Pumps

    Our Industrial Heat Pumps recover and reuse waste heat to deliver efficient, low carbon industrial heating. They provide reliable high temperatures - up to 165° Degrees C - while reducing energy use, cutting CO₂ emissions, and lowering operating costs.
